When Fernando Tirado became the new district manager for Community Board 7 in January, one of his main goals was to create a comprehensive Web site for the board, a place on the Internet where local residents could find out valuable information and submit complaints and suggestions.
While the site remains “under construction,” residents can now submit complaints and send e-mails to the board office through the new Web site. Check out the new site and send in a complaint at www.bronxcb7.info. Tirado has said he hopes to have the rest of the site completed sometime next year.

Welcome to the Norwood News, a bi-weekly community newspaper that primarily serves the northwest Bronx communities of Norwood, Bedford Park, Fordham and University Heights. Through our Breaking Bronx blog, we focus on news and information for those neighborhoods, but aim to cover as much Bronx-related news as possible. Founded in 1988 by Mosholu Preservation Corporation, a not-for-profit affiliate of Montefiore Medical Center, the Norwood News began as a monthly and grew to a bi-weekly in 1994. In September 2003 the paper expanded to cover University Heights and now covers all the neighborhoods of Community District 7. The Norwood News exists to foster communication among citizens and organizations and to be a tool for neighborhood development efforts. The Norwood News runs the Bronx Youth Journalism Heard, a journalism training program for Bronx high school students. As you navigate this website, please let us know if you discover any glitches or if you have any suggestions. We’d love to hear from you.
